Publisher's Synopsis
Nebraska is not just fly-over county. Richard Sutton with the deft eye of a landscape architect captures an aesthetic connection to the state's landscape and environment. He explains why we might like its wide-open spaces, how they came to be, changed, and what their futures could hold. A fourth-generation Nebraskan, Sutton helps us understand what it is that strikes us about Nebraska's plains, hills, rivers and writ large as a cultural landscape; what he suggests proposes a wider approach for viewing all landscapes.
